Abstract: A magnetic lock assembly is disclosed, the assembly including a locking component which has a lock housing and magnetic lock member, the magnetic lock member being housed in the lock housing and a striker component which has a striker plate which is magnetically attracted to the magnetic lock in a locking direction by a magnetic force produced by the magnetic lock member, in use. The assembly is characterized therein that the striker plate and the magnetic lock member are movable relative to each other in the locking direction, the striker plate and the magnetic lock member include complementary latching formations and the striker component and the locking component have cooperating displacing mechanism for displacing the striker plate and the magnetic lock member relative to each other in the locking direction upon movement of the striker plate and the magnetic lock member relative to each other in a transverse direction. The invention extends to a door including a magnetic lock assembly.
